The financial industry is full of the "F word" and Matthew McConaughey's mysterious performance



``I grew up in a middle-class family with an accountant in a small apartment in Queens,'' DiCaprio's character Jordan Belfort says to us in the audience from the beginning of the movie. Dressed in a luxurious suit, he drives the same white Ferrari as in `` Miami Vice '' (1984-1989) and gives his second wife, Naomi (Margot Robbie), a blow job. He goes on to boast: "I do enough drugs every day to keep Manhattan buzzing for a month. Quailude for my lower back pain 15 times a day, Adderall for mental focus, Xanax for tension relief, cocaine to keep me sane, morphine...that's the best. ”.


Money, sex, drugs. Belfort's vulgar and brutal tendencies were cultivated on the sales floor of Wall Street, where he jumped into business at the age of 22, without money or connections, before getting married for the first time.

The story is based on Belfort's memoir of the same name, published in 2007. Initially, the Japanese translation was published in 2008 as " Wall Street Madness Diary: My Crazy Life Being Called a Wolf" (Hayakawa Shobo), and in 2013, the first and second volumes were released in paperback (Hayakawa Shobo) to coincide with the release of the movie. Non-fiction paperback) was released. Let's draw a description of Wall Street from there (translation: Taisuke Sakai).


"There was shit everywhere, full of fucks. That's the language of Wall Street. That's the core of this powerful howl, the words that burst into your ears over the roaring noise. It's intoxicating, it's exciting. He’ll let me!”


"No longer able to hold back, the young brokers became angry under desks, in bathroom stalls, in locker rooms, underground parking garages and, of course, in the building's glass elevators."


The super-carnivorous financial industry is full of so-called "F-words." The first mentor Belfort meets is Mark Hanna, the boss of investment bank LF Rothschild, played by Matthew McConaughey. When he gives a vigorous signal, "3,2,1...Let's Fuck!!!!", the salespeople at work start making sales calls like they're possessed. At lunch, he gives Belfort some lame advice such as ``Play trout twice a day,'' and then suddenly starts beating his chest like a gorilla and singing a strange song. Even though it only appears in the beginning, it has a great impact.
